windows

Online e-say (the fourth in my e-say series). Virtual reality, plasticity and a world beyond interface. When I made windows for the BBC, I invited the viewer to look out of a window and to send me a message recording what they saw. I don't recall all the emails that came back, but I do remember the first one – it hit me like a lighting bolt. It said simply 'I see a palm tree', reminding me that not all views are the same and yet connectivity can be a thread that unites us, one with another.
